About this map

The Milk River meanders across this northern Montana landscape, carving a wide valley defined by numerous coulees and complex water management. Settlement is concentrated along transport corridors, with Burnham and Pacific Junction serving as historical nodes near the river's path. The area shows a transition from the riparian environment to the high plains, punctuated by features like Black Butte and the presence of local aviation infrastructure at the Havre City-County Airport.

Water is a dominant force in this Hill County quadrangle, where natural features like Big Sandy Cr and Beaver Creek are augmented by human engineering, including the Meill Ditch and the Havre Irrigation Ditch. These systems support the surrounding agriculture, while smaller bodies of water like Halfway Lake and Stink Lake dot the southern reaches. Recreational and community spaces are represented by Sunset Garden Park and Herron Park, providing a glimpse into the local geography of the late 2010s.
